I personally disagree with Caley Roark. While many sports gamers wish to have an experience in which they feel like they're on the field or court, I really wish to simulate a television broadcast, and any element that brings me closer to that is a plus for me. Even though there is no network partnership, the camera angle and commentary style of NBA 2k11 has made it my favorite sports game of all time. I rarely, if ever, play with teams other than the Celtics, and while I do hear similar quotes, I never feel like the presentation is a drag, even playing it 4+ times a week since its release. If a game can make a person in the room who is not playing the game feel as if they are watching a live broadcast, I feel that the developer has done their job.
